7 EXOTIC JUNGLE TREKS | GEDEPAHALA RAINFOREST, WEST JAVA

November 29, 2017

The Gedepahala trek consists of the great regions of West Java’s rainforests among the province’s most loved mountains: Gede, Pangrango, Halimun and Salak. Opt to do one at a time or all at once. This depends on your fitness and level of experience. Trekking through Mount Gede Pangrango National Park should be a rite of passage for any environmentally minded tourist visiting West Java. The park is a rainforest surrounding the twin dormant volcanoes that give the park its name (Mount Gede and Mount Pangrango). Covering almost 22,000 hectares, the rainforest is home to a variety of rare plants and animal species. Beginning at the Cibodas visitor center, hikers can proceed up a cobbled path winding up the side of the twin peaks, hitting numerous landmarks along the way: including a surreal blue-colored lake, a rather dilapidated boardwalk spanning the Gayonggong Swamp, triple waterfalls, and ultimately the peak of Mount Pangrango, that towers over the landscape at 2,958 meters above sea level. For more experienced hikers, head to Mount Halimun Salak National Park, which is a 400 kilometer square conservation area located right by the Mount Gede Pangrango National Park. Mount Halimun Salak is home to many endangered nird species and the Javan Gibbon and Lutung One can arrange day hikes up this mountain, although be warned, it is a challenging terrain. The walking trej starts at Pasir Reunggit Camping Ground. It takes approximately two to three hours to the crater, passing hot springs along the way as well as the Cangkuang National Park and Cidahu Candlenut Forest. A meadow covered with edelweiss flowers is situated at an altitude of 2,750 meters above sea level, and is a six-hour hike from Cibodas. Text: Cassandra Niki S.

Solo Women Travelers in Indonesia

July 24, 2017

As a woman, I believe traveling alone would be relatively safe anywhere. Of course, in almost all over the world, even in the safest country, one should always be cautious and to always trust her instinct. Preplanning and awareness are keys to any safe and enjoyable vacation. I am an organized planner by nature, so before I venture on my own, I always make a detailed plan for each of the days of my trip. I will also leave a copy of my itinerary with someone at home so they can track me in any emergency. I always pick a nice affordable accommodation in the area of my interest, therefore I avoid unnecessary long travels during the day. And if I do want to make along day trip to see particular site, I always choose a reputable taxi company or a car rental service. I tend to use my credit card or debit card for purchases, and carry just enough cash with me at all times. If I was to go to a traditional market where they may not accept any cards, I would stop by an ATM machine to get some extra cash for shopping. When I decide to go out clubbing at night, I either call up a friend who lives in the area or make new friends that day when I lounged by the pool, so I don’t have to brave the party scene on my own. But when you do want to go out on your own, tell someone at the hotel and ask him or her to check up on you in the morning. Just to be on the safe ride. For me, solo traveling doesn’t mean I will be all alone the whole time. Most likely, I make new friends within the first couple of days of my trip. And ended up traveling together as a group the whole time.

MENJELANG LEBARAN, WAKTUNYA BUKA PUASA BERSAMA TEMAN LAMA

June 13, 2017

Kegiatan buka bersama atau yang lebih dikenal dengan BUBER merupakan sebuah tradisi yang melekat pada bulan Ramadhan terutama 3 hingga 2 minggu menjelang lebaran. Acara buka bersama dapat dilangsungkan dimana saja, mulai dari rumah, restoran, hotel hingga panti asuhan dan Masjid. Sejatinya, acara buka bersama adalah sebuah wadah untuk bersilaturahmi, berkumpul kembali dengan teman lama atau saudara dan menjalin komunikasi yang sempat terputus karena waktu dan jarak. Bagi kebanyakan orang, kegiatan buka bersama ini merupakan kegiatan yang positif dan menyenangkan, serta ditunggu-tunggu. Maka dari itu, menentukan tempat buka puasa bersama menjadi salah satu poin penting dalam kegiatan ini. Jika kebetulan kamu menjadi panitia acara buka bersama tahun ini, berikut tips menentukan tempat untuk buka bersama dari House Sangkuriang. Paket buka bersama di House Sangkuriang hanya Rp. 99,000,-Net/Pax! 1. TENTUKAN TEMPAT BERDASARKAN JUMLAH Jangan sampai acara buka bersama malah berantakan karena tempatnya terlalu sempit untuk rombongan kamu. Jika acara buka bersama nanti dihadiri oleh lebih dari 20 orang, maka sebaiknya adakan acara tersebut di restoran yang luas, atau bisa juga dengan menyewa sebuah meeting room di salah satu hotel, sehingga acara silaturahmi dapat berlangsung lebih intim. 2. HARGA MENU YANG TERJANGKAU Saat menentukan menu, pilihlah harga yang terjangkau tidak hanya bagi kamu tapi juga bagi yang lain. Jika ada, pilihlah paket makanan yang khusus tersedia selama bulan Ramadan karena biasanya paket tersebut sudah menjangkau semua (Takjil, menu utama & minuman) dan harganya lebih murah dibandingkan jika A La Carte. 3. TEMPAT YANG STRATEGIS Pilihlah tempat yang strategis dengan akses mudah untuk acara buka bersama. Karena jika terlalu jauh biasanya tamu akan malas untuk datang. Sudah pernah datang ke House Sangkuriang Bandung, belum? Hotel kami dapat mengakomodasi kegiatan buka bersama kamu, baik itu untuk rombongan kecil maupun besar. Hanya dengan Rp. 99,000,-Net/Pax kamu bisa seru-seruan bersama teman lama di hotel unik di Bandung dengan view swimming pool. Info & Reservasi: +622287832323
